But how do you know that the antecedent of HE is Kevin not the adviser; both are singular and you can not establish parallelism between the counselor and kevin, and HE only.

I went for D. How D is stupid ? Is correctly states that the counselor is not convinced.

The source is not any of the know prep companies, but it has good reputation. Look for a CR question that I posted yesterday titled "Frustration". It turned out to be a solid LSAT question. Also, the source is solid in regards to math questions.

By the way, do you know what is correct idiom for "In contrast" and for "in regards to" ? is it with regards to ? and is it In contrast to ?

No, the misplaced modifier is confusing you in D. The financial adviser is not the one who is not convinced. The student is not convinced, even thought the financial adviser is telling him that he (the student) can afford college.

Correct idiom: "in contrast to."

I don't know "regards."
